My Beast Hero Academia (BNA x My Hero Academia)

Chapter 16 - Conflicts and Tensions

Ok so I may or may not have jinxed it, this summer was busier than I expected. Since I've started my new job we've just been super busy and plus I'm going to college this fall so I've been preparing myself too. I'm sure some of you may understand that, so I'm really sorry for getting this out later! But thank you so much for your patience!

I know some parts may seem a bit rushed but I tried my best with the time I had, I hope you guys understand and enjoy it though!

If you have questions or concerns feel free to message me! As always, hope you enjoy the chapter!

The crowd was stunned with what they were watching, the first one on one battle of the Sports Festival had begun with Midoriya freezing in place. Not everyone knew what was going on, including some of his classmates. But only a handful knew, as Shinso now had complete control of Midoriya's body, and there was nothing Midoriya could do.

"WHATS GOING HERE??? NOT EVEN THIRTY SECONDS IN AND MIDORIYA HAS ALREADY STOPPED IN HIS TRACKS!! WILL SHINSO ACTUALLY WIN THIS??"

"Come on Deku!" Uraraka said, trying to cheer her friend on but couldn't help but worry about the sudden event.

"Oh dear, why did Midoriya stop??" Iida said worriedly, looking down to see Michiru trying to get a closer look as Ashido turned back towards him to answer his question.

"Michiru said he looks like he's in a trance!" Iida adjusted his glasses, holding his chin as he thought to himself.

'So this could be Shinso's quirk then. I fear if Midoriya doesn't snap out of it then this may be over for him...'

"SHINSO HASN'T DONE MUCH TO STAND OUT, BUT HE COULD'VE BEEN SAVING HIS QUIRK TO KEEP HIS ELEMENT OF SURPRISE! AND LOOK AT IT NOW, WHAT A SUDDEN CHANGE OF EVENTS!!" Present Mic yelled.

While Present Mic continued his commentary, Shinso on the other hand grinned. Everything was going perfectly for him now, he didn't have a chance in the practical exam due to his quirk not being a physical one, but the Sports Festival was his chance of redemption.

"You've been blessed with such an incredible quirk, Izuku Midoriya, but clearly... I'll be winning this match today. Now do me a favor and turn around, walk out of bounds." And like that, Midoriya turned himself around without hesitation, as he slowly walked towards the line of the arena they stood in.

"WAIT WHAT?! HE'S OBEYING SHINSO'S COMMAND???"

His classmates only got more worried, watching their unresponsive friend walk even closer to the line. Even All Might and Shirou wanted to say something, but they knew it was beyond them to interrupt the match.

'His quirk, what is it?? Could it be brainwashing?' Shirou thought to himself, curious but also concerned over Midoriya's ability to win the match.

"Come on kid!! Snap out of it! What was all that talk earlier, don't go back from it now!" All Might was more than worried, he was practically panicking over what he was watching. Only minutes before the boy was so determined and now he was about to lose. Midoriya was aware of everything he was hearing, and yet, he was locked out. He could witness everything from what felt like a window he couldn't open.

'What's going on? Why can't I control my movements? I... can't break free!!' Midoriya's mind only became more troubled as the distance between him and the line grew shorter.

'Come on stop moving!! Why can't I concentrate?! This is my fault, Ojiro and Yoarashi warned me! And now I'm about to lose!' He recalled what Ojiro and Yoarashi said back in the waiting room, how Shinso's quirk acted on them and how he could overcome it. So long as he didn't speak back to Shinso, he had the advantage. But if he ever was under his control, some type of force needed to be forced on Midoriya to wake him up.
